Chapter 1 –And the Winner Is…

Ok before you read this, you should know that I have OC characters in this.

It was the end of the Shaman King tournament. Ren was up against Yoh in the last match. Quite obviously the green haired one lost and the latter had won. Anna went to congratulate Yoh for being the new Shaman King, and started planning their wedding. Yoh was dizzy from the constant shaking of his body due to Horo, who was shaking him back and forth, saying "Woah! You won!" over and over again.

Ren went to shake Yoh's hand.

"Nice fight, Yoh." Started Ren, and he stuck out his hand. Yoh grabbed his hand and shook it.

"Thanks! You did pretty well too!" replied Yoh. Though Ren was happy for his friend, he felt really bad that he lost. Ren slumped down on the bench, and sighed the deepest sigh ever.

"Hey nice fight!" said an unfamiliar voice.

"Huh?" said Ren and he looked behind him and saw an uncommon figure. It was a girl, about his age with long brown hair. She had blue eyes that you could stare into forever. Ren was at awe.

"Um, do I know you?" asked Ren.

She giggled. "No, Im Nisky Kawaisa, nice too meet you." And she stuck out her hand and waited for a response. Ren obliged and shook his new friend's hand. Nisky secretly liked Ren she admired his determination and seriousness. She first saw him at the first Shaman King fight…

Flash Back

Silva had just announced that Ren would be fighting Horo in the first match. He was determined to win.

Ren walked up to the recently announced challenge. Horo lazily walked to Ren's opposite side of the ring. (Hey this is my fic, so if I say there is a ring, there is!) Everyone gathered around the ring. Nisky sat on top of a branch on a nearby tree.

"First one out of the ring wins!" said Silva, just before the go. "Go!" (see?)

Ren ordered Baston, his ghost-friend to block and wait, until he gave him the order to attack. He had a plan. Horo kept throwing punches and hits at him, but every punch and hit was blocked. Eventually, Horo got tired and stopped to take a breath.

"Now!" screamed Ren, and Baston understood. In one quick blow, Horo flew right out of the ring. Everyone cheered and Nisky's heart skipped a beat, she admired Ren from afar. Ren walked to Horo and pulled him up from the ground.

"Hey, next time less offense more defense. Sorry I beat you." Said Ren comfortingly

"Hey man, no problem. I was getting tired of this anyway." Said Horo and he went off crying in the distance. Nisky was too busy admiring Ren that she did not notice that Horo was crying. She got off her branch-chair and went to talk to Victoria, her best friend. Victoria is English, just like Ren. She has black hair and green eyes. Practically the same age as Nisky, only older.

"He's so…cute!" cried Nisky practically screaming in Victoria's ear.

"Who? The bloke with the green hair and yellow eyes?" whispered Victoria, a bit too pessimistic for her own good.

"Yes!" screamed Nisky again

"Quit screaming in my ear!" screamed Victoria angrily.

"Whoops, sorry Victoria!" said Nisky and she smiled sweetly. Victoria just rolled her eyes.

End Flash Back

Ren did not know this girl. To him, she seemed quite nice and beautiful. Ren smiled his "I'm a cool guy" smile and said "Hey. I'm Tao Ren, nice to meet you too." and went on walking to his friends.

Then he stopped, "Hey why don't you join me? We're going to celebrate Yoh's victory," said Ren, hoping his friend would oblige.

She smiled and said "Sure, why not? It'll be fun!"

Inner Ren: "Yes!"
